The very brief description is this is a type of pain that affects the part of the nervous system that is involved in touch and feeling (surface or deep) – basically the sensory piece. It may affect other nerves too.

A common type of neuropathic pain is peripheral neuropathy. This may be a result of bad injury, metabolic condition, inherited causes, where someone may feel numbness, tingling, weakness, stabbing, and burning in the arms, legs, hands, or feet. Some examples are carpal tunnel syndrome and complex regional pain syndrome (reflex sympathetic dystrophy).
Auto Immune Conditions
These are conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, scleroderma, and fibromyalgia. Some symptoms include inflammation, swelling, pain, and may affect coordinated movement patterns.
